Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

   Ingredients:
  • peanut butter cookie dough
  • Reeses
  • muffin tins
   Preparation:
        The first step into making the Peanut Butter Cup Cookies is to cut the peant butter cookie dough into perfect one inch slices. Then to cut those slices into fourths. In order to get the perfect size cookies you must take great measure into slicing the cookie dough.
       
         I never could cut the cookie dough evenly enough. Therefore, we would always end up with extra cookie dough that my sisters would fight over.
         You could hear them whisper, "Oh! That piece is mine," as they tried quietly to retrieve the extra pieces of cookie dough.
         As me and my mom went on with the cutting we would slowly hear an arguement brewing as one of them would get more cookie dough than the other.
         We would hear, "That piece is too big for you!" or "You can't eat all of that!"
         This bickering would last a little while longer before my mom was fed up with the arguing and would yell, "If you are not going to help, but only argue, yal can get out!"

         After putting the evenly sliced cookie dough into the muffin tins, the cookies are ready to go into the oven that has been pre-heated to 350 degrees. While the cookies are baking you must get the Reeses ready to put into each individual cookie once they come out of the oven.
        
         This has to be my favorite step in the recipe. It's my favorite step because if one of the Reeses are not fit to be used (meaning they are not whole), then I get to eat it. Another reason why I love this part is because the chance to eat a Reeses brings my sisters crawling back into the kitchen. You would think it would anger me to have competition to get the Reeses, but being the competitive person that I am, I find it quite entertaining. It makes it more like a game. Whoever gets the most Reeses wins.

           After about 9 minutes in the oven the cookies are ready to come out. Once the cookie filled muffin tins are placed on the counter you must quickly put the Reeses into the cookies.You do this so that the Reeses will melt a little and stay secure in the cookies. Once all the Reeses are placed in the cookie, you let them cool for 15 minutes. Then when the cookies have been cooled and the smells from them have attracted a crowd, you use a small spoon to carefully remove them one at a time. Then once all the cookies are out, you can finally serve them to your anxious, mouth watering guests. Now you just sit and watch as the enjoyment slowly appers on their faces.
